The reason why the Democratic ma

the admission of Democrats in contested

in congress are short on members, but

The Chicago matters and brewers pro-
pose to discriminate against Iowa and

that distillers and brewers should buy
their grain elsewhere if they can-kansas

mention in some paper of a rencon-

some fellow with a grievance, and
occasionally it is stated that the bully
succeeded in getting the best of the bout.
The mistake that most people make who
find cause for umbrage at some newspa-

may be interested is that the writer of
such article has some personal feeling in
